Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Snake Balls at none against PolyMerge's 5. Snake Balls also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). PolyMerge's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
